Chapter Nineteen: New Findings
Brief on New Findings
Magical Signatures can me identified by the lingering residue left after a spell has been cast, by the use of a black light. It is also noted that if there is any magical interaction with the residue within 3 hours after the spell by a carrier had been cast they have a 50 possibility of accruing the virus.
Magical Flow is the circuit in which a wizards' magic circulates around the body. It flows in only one direction all around the body.
Aura (Body's Aura) is what protects the Magical Flow from any outside damage.
Future examination has lead to the discovery that most pure blooded wizards do not have open, Open Connections need in the Body's Aura to produce Traits. It's most likely an adaption made thru time as a means of protection from another possible Magic Virus.
These closed Open Connections can be opened but as of yet it would lead to the Healer's infection, it's under development. A safe way of opening the connection must be found.
Magical Flow is contained in the body's Aura having no effect as long as no magic is being cast, when the Body's Aura opens around the hand area, to release magic. Traits are Magic attributes and so open the Aura to allow the out flow of the Infected Magical Flow and causes infection, as it can penetrate into a wizard but not out of a Wizards Body Aura.
Further research on that matter was inconclusive.
When in the Body Aura the Virus latches onto the center of circulation, the Kentron. Inside the Kentron, The Soupleer, that which supply magic, is tricked into increasing it's production while the body Aura is told to remain shut.
The Open Connections are not technically open, but a "fail-safe" that opens under pressure to avoid magical buildup and later poison by releasing the infected magic that turn into Traits as we know them, reason why Traits can spread the Virus.
Variation in Traits is caused by the magic that is most commonly used by wizard, which made those "fail-safes" a lower tolerance for pressure.
It is unsure if victims will return to normal after the virus has been dealt with.
Reason for Carriers who are not victims. The Body Aura is broken into two layers the inner and outer, on possible Carriers the Inner one is lined on BOTH sides (unlike the victims who only have it on the inside-- the reason why it can't penetrate out without the use of magic) with a certain natural barrier that stops in from reaching the Magical Flow. They carry the Virus in between the two layers, that does nothing to them but does infect their magic after it has left he Inner Layer.
The Virus feeds off of Magic.
We have started on adapting a Dark Spell used to stop a wizard from using magic permanently to do so only temporarily to see if the Virus can be starved out.
